Disney Announces Ticket Price Increase For 2013

It’s a sad but expected rite of spring: Effective Sunday, June 2, 2013, Disney put into place its yearly price increases.

Normally Disney is the leader in the race to increase Orlando theme park ticket prices, followed in lock step by Universal and Sea World. This year, however, Universal was the leader by being the first to raise its price for a single day to more than $90. Now, Disney has followed less than two weeks later.

As of now, Sea World still charges $89 with a $10 discount for buying on-line, but they will likely come into line and raise their prices too.

Single Day Ticket Increase

With the price increase Disney has also made a change – it now costs more to visit the Magic Kingdom than it does to visit the other Disney parks of Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom. A single day ticket to the Magic Kingdom is $95 for adults (ages 10 and up) and $89 for children (ages 3 – 9). The other parks now cost $90 for adults or $84 for children.

These represent increases from last year’s prices of $89 for adults and $83 for children for all the parks.

Disney has announced its yearly price increases for 2013.

The prices of Magic Your Way (multi-day tickets) as well as the Park Hopper option and Water Park option also went up.
